Rong Si held the bottle in front of her. “Drink it. I might believe you.”
Wh-what?!
He’s really asking me to drink it?
Rong Xi’s eyes widened. She got even more nervous. A cold sweat broke out on her forehead.
She laughed dryly again. “Big Brother Rong Si, what… what do you mean? I’m not sick. Why do you want me to drink it? Are you afraid that I poisoned it?”
Rong Si smirked. “You’re absolutely right.”
Rong Xi choked, not knowing what to say.
What should I do?
Big Brother Rong Si suspects me!
Seeing her face pale, Auntie Zhang became suspicious. “What’s wrong? Why are you so nervous? Did you really do something to it?”
Rong Xi quickly retorted, “I… No, I didn’t! Don’t accuse me of such things!”
At this moment, she felt extremely guilty. To hide this, she let tears fall from her eyes. She said aggrievedly, “I came over to visit Sister Su Jiu out of goodwill and deliver medicine to her. How could you treat me like this? You’re even suspecting that I would poison her. Even if I wanted to, do you really think I would do it personally?”
She spoke straightforwardly, trying to clear herself of suspicion.
The expression on Rong Si’s face didn’t waver. He just looked at her steadily. “Are you going to drink it or not?”
Auntie Zhang also looked at Rong Xi suspiciously. “Kid, since this medicine is nothing, you can drink a mouthful. And it’s an antiviral. You can drink it even if you’re not sick.”
“I…” Rong Xi looked at the bottle of medicine handed to her. Her heart was in her throat.
How could she drink it?
If she drank it, wouldn’t she be the one who would have to lie in the hospital for a year and a half and suffer?
But if she didn’t drink it, they would suspect her. How could she explain herself?
Rong Xi had thought that things would go smoothly for her. She had even thought that she could impress Rong Si. This was unexpected for her.
With such a huge problem before her, her mind was a mess. She didn’t know what to do.
Seeing that Rong Xi stood still for a long time, Rong Si was certain that something was wrong with the medicine.
Rong Xi… is she so despicable that she would come here and harm Little Jiu?
In the ward, Su Jiu heard a sound in her daze. She slowly opened her eyes and turned around to see three people standing at the door.
She froze when she saw Rong Xi.
It’s her. Why is she here?!
Outside the door, Rong Si looked down at Rong Xi and said sinisterly, “You still won’t drink it? Then don’t blame me for being rude to you.”
Then, he unscrewed the bottle cap.
“No, no, no… no!” Rong Xi shouted in a panic. “Forget it, forget it. I’ll just throw this medicine away if you don’t want to give it to her. I won’t force myself. Um, I remember that I still have something on. I’ll leave first!”
She had taken only a few steps when two burly bodyguards suddenly appeared in front of her and blocked her way. Then, Su Shengjing and An Yuan walked over to her.
Su Shengjing coldly looked at her. “You’re just going to leave after trying to give my daughter some strange medicine?!”
Rong Xi wanted to cry.
She knew Su Shengjing and An Yuan. Who didn’t know this famous celebrity couple?
She had actually bumped into them. Now, she really would not be able to get away easily. What should she do?
Su Shengjing coldly instructed the bodyguards, “Arrest her!”
“No!” Rong Xi tried to run, but she was no match for the two bodyguards. She was easily caught, her arms locked behind her back, and she could not move.
Rong Si took the bottle of medicine and walked toward her with a cold expression.
